 Another Attempt Against The Czar
 LONDON, April 1.-The Morning Posts Vienna correspondent telegraphs that a re- port is current at the Austrian capital that on Wednesday last another unsuccessful at tempt was made to assassinate the Czar and that all of the conspirators except two, a man and 8 woman, both of whom had bombs, escaped arrest.
 LONDON, April 1.-The Times St. Peters burg dispatch confirms the report that number of Nihilists were arrested on We'd nesday, the day that the Czar arrived there from Gatschina, but the correspondent is un- able to confirm the rumor that an attempt was made to assassinate his majesty. It is surmlsed that the press censorship may have much to do with the correspondents inability to say whether or not the Czar's life was at tempted.

The Police Fire on the Mob and
 Wound One Man Severely. BELFAST, April 10.-The usual Easter fes- tivities were indulged in by the various re- ligious denominations to-day and following them came an inevitable riot resulting from any demonstration of a religious character that may take place in this town. There was scarcely any disorder during the early part of the day, but toward evening crowds az gregated on the street corners and as dark ness set in they became noisy and demon stratiye. The police attempted to clear the streets, but were attacked by the mob and driven away. Achievements arrived and another charge was made upon the mob, which resisted stubbornly and pelted the police unmercifully. Finally the police were ordered to fire. which they did, wounding one man severely and the crowd fell back. but did not disperse altogether. Desultory stone throwing was indulged in by the mob until nearly midnight when all be- came quiet. The meb, however, is making unmistakable preparations for arenewal of the fight to morrow morning and repetition of last summers hostilities is feared. The police have been ordered to deal summarily with the mob.

Charged With Trying to Defraud An
 Insurance Company.
 NEW YORK, April 10.-Dr. William M Reynolds, of 108 West Forty-seventh street, was arrested Saturday and his wife was ar rested to-day on charges of attempting to defraud an insurance company. Their exam ination was set down for Tuesday. The affair is likely to cause sensation as the accused occupy high positions in society, especially Mrs. Reynolds, who is the leader in a quite exclusive set. The Reynolds family occu- pied in summer a cottage'at Flushing which has been twice visited by fire within recent period The insurance company interested found reason to suspect something wrong and the charge is now made after considerable detective work that the furniture on which insurance was collected was remoued from the house before each of the fires occurred. The accused vigorously deny the charge and claim ample ability to refute it.

THE PLUMBERS, STRIKE.
The Bosses Say They Will Not Yield
 It Takes All Summer.

1t Takes All Summer.
 The master plumbers say that they don't intend to yield to the demand of the striking plumbers and that they expect to fight it out on that basis if it takes all summer. They say the demands made are very unreasonable and that the striking is making the business so dull in turn that not much help will be needed. There are about thirty-fve journey men plumbers in town, about thirty of whom struck. Good plumbers have been earning $20 a week right along. The striking plumbers demand that no man be paid less than $3 day whether worth it or not, double pay for over hours, and that no non-union man shall have work. One of the bosses in dignantly said last evening, "Why, if we give in now, next thing we know our men won't allow us to do anything except 'pay off on pay days and will dictate where we shall buy groceries where we shall get A shave D

Irish Speakers in Great Demand.

BOSTON, April 10.-Clancy cables from Dublin to the Herald: When I left London Thursday evening the agitation against the coercion bill was in full swing. Up to that time but one meeting in England had been dred against it, and the prospect was that this proportion would be maintained The demands from Liberal organizations for Irish members as speakers were so numerous that it was impossible to comply with one fourth of them and those demands came from not merely one or two districts, but from every quarter of the island. Many of the requests were peculiar and suggestive, being for Irish members only who have been in jail. The meetings moreover are very large and enthusiastic, and altogether the agitation promises to be more like the great Bulgarian agitation of 1879 than any since. It is not certain that while the Liberal Un- ionist leaders are chiefly to blame not only for the introduction of the coercion bill, but also for it's most drastic provisions, very many if not the majority of the rank and file of the party are simply quaking in their shoes at the certain result of their action, result clearly foreshadowed by the wholesale passing over of their principal supporters in the country to the Gladstonian campaign. The coercion bill therefore, which was in- tended finally to trample out the home rule movement both in England and Ireland, has really been and will be the greatest service yet rendered to the Irish cause. Nothing else could have so effectually conduced to the rapid conversion to home rule of the wavering section of the Liberals, whose aid alone is wanting to the rapid and complete success of the Gladstone policy. The ap- pointment of King Harmon to the post of under secretary for Ireland, if it has really been made, will be another powerful factor working in the same direction. Such an ap- pointment damns the government as mere partisan instrument of the landlords. liar mon began as home ruler. He was, in fact, the first home ruler returned to Parlia ment from an Irish constituency under that title and he remained enc, in appearance, until the electors at Sligo, having found that he was more of landlord than home ruler, turned him out. When he could get no more out of the Nationalists he became an Orangeman ahd has since figured in that capacity without doing any service to him. self or his new allies. -l

LORD LANsDOwNE IN FEAR
That Ills Life May be Attempted When
 He Opens Parliament.


 OTTAWA, April 10.-There is much ex- citement here over an official notice to the effect that during the presence of Lord Lansdowne in the Senate chamber in open ing Parliament on the 14th the galleries of the Senate will be closed. This is the first time in the history of the Dominion that such step has been taken. the galleries of the Senate always on such occasions being open to the public, who are admitted by ticket. A tame excuse is given that it will prevent confusion. The opinion is that his excellency has received threats which he is afraid will be carried into effect if 8 crowd is permitted to enter the gallery of the chamber while he is opening Parliament on the floor below. Extra pre- caution is to be taken to insure his safety in passing between the government house and the Senate on the day Parliament opens. A strong escort will accompany him going and coming. This, however, is always done.

PROHIBITION IN TEXAS.

senator maXeY Follows Senator Rea- gan and Comes Out SquareIy in Its Favor.
 FORT WORTH, Tex, April 10.-Ex-Lieu- l tenant Governor Gibbs addressed letter to e4-Senator Maxey asking him to come out
 against the prohibition amendment which is
 to be voted on in August. MT. Maxey's re-
 ply was made public yesterday. The object
 of Gibbs was to get Maxey to address State
 anti-prohibition meeting. ''Maxey says: Your
 letter places the proposed amendment in the
 nature of sumptuary legislatien.z I do not so
 regard it. The State has power of the ques
 tion as an integral part of the police powers
 never granted to the general government.
 The police powers of the State are wholly
 distinct from sumptuary legislation. As
 the people of Texas have the lawful power in the mode and manner prescribed by the constitution to adopt or reject the proposed amendment, propose to abide by what MT. Jefferson laid down as a cardinal princi- pie of democracy-absolute acqui- essence in the decisions of the majority, the vital principle of republics from which there is no appeal but to force'' Mr. Maxey says: "The Democratic party should not suffer itself to be dragged into this controversy. The only real question involved is: Is it's adoption ex- pedient? On this the wisest and purest men differ. The Democratic party such has noth- ing and ought to have nothing to do with the question. As citizens let every man exercise his best judgment and vote accordingly. I propose to exercise my right, and while I do not have the confidence which some have in the efficacy of the measure to the full extent claimed, I will in the interests of good morals, peace and prosperity resolve the doubt in favor of that side which seeks the greatest number and vote for the amendment"
 MT. Maxey's letter has not reached the peo- pie generally, but it is safe to say it will create sensation. Captain Boyton Reaches the Battery.
 NEW YORK, April 10.-Captain Paul Boy ton, who started in his rubber suit from Hudson, N. Y., at noon on Tuesday to pad dle to the Battery, distance of 130 miles, arrived at his destination about three o'clock this afternoon. The captains arrival was the signal for the firing of guns and torpe- does, accompanied by the footing of steam whistles from the many vessels in the harbor and the cheers and waving of handkerchiefs from the crowds that lined the Battery and piers. Captain Boyton seemed little the worse for his journey although it was stated shat he had lost twenty pounds in weight since he started.

HAVERLY'S MINISTRIES.

The Haverly Minstrel company will be at Carll's Opera House tomorrow night. A rare treat is in store for all those who go to see the performance, as they are sure to see refined and enjoyable entertainment. This famous organization is decidedly the best in it's line. The show is clean from beginning to end, as coarseness or vulgarity is not per mitted. As result of this large audiences are attracted. Colonel J. H. Haverly will be in personal command, this being the first season he has travelled himself for eleven years and his first visit to New Haven in ten years. The grand parade will take place to- morrow at II a. m. from Carll's Opera House and Colonel Haverly and William Emerson will ride in a carriage at the head.
 RUDDYGoRE.
 At the New Haven Opera House this eve- ming .tRuddygore," Gilbert 6 Sullivans la test operatic production, will be the attrac- tion, and large audience will gather to witness this it's first production in New Ha- ven. An exchange says: Year after year Messrs Gilbert 6 Sullivan have sent over the Atlantic, congenially welded, assort- ments of wit and melody. 'Ruddygore" is unquestionably one of the best things that Sir Arthur Sullivan has ever done.
 Its pictures will surely give delight, and the freshness and melodiousness of the ma jority of the musical pieces will charm for a long time.
 ''Ruddygore' also be given on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings and at g Wednes- day matinee.
 BUNNELLs GRAND OPERA HOUSE.
 This week MT. Sid c. France, the sensa- tional actor, supported by strong dramatic company, will present at Bunnel's on Mon day, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings the very attractive drama f'Marked for Life 5 The piece abounds in interesting situations, which as presented by MT. France and his company make it highly entertaining throughout. On Thursday, Friday and Sat urday MT. France and his company play 'sDead to the World,'' which while differing from the former, like it presents scenes that always maintain an intense interest among the audience from beginning to end. In the museum hall Lawrence Donovan, who jumped from Brooklyn bridge and the Mag ara Falls suspension bridge, will appear. He is the champion jumper of the world.
